Which way round
Anticlockwise: Easy first 1.5 km, climbs 13% for 200 m near the end, comes down 19% for 250 m early on.
Clockwise: Easy first 2.8 km, climbs 19% for 250 m near the end, comes down 13% for 200 m early on.
Better clockwise: you climb the steeper side (0.6 km at 10%+, 0.6 km of it 15%+) and come down 0.4 km of steep ground. Steep descents are where people slip, and they're harder on knees late in a walk.
Main climb: km 9.3–10.1, from 125 m to 210 m.
